[Verse 1]
Scared of the dark
Huggin' your clothes
I want you to be happy
Don't want you to know
What would you say to your little girl?
Now that they're all that is wrong with the world
The words from Nick Drake
Start to make sense
The paint's gettin' dry
But you still hate your fence

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show

[Verse 2]
The first days were hard
I learned to love tears
Was told I was brave and was bottlin' for years
Just one more night
I'II make love with a ghost
I recognise those hands
I was touchin' myself
So I cut my hair
And then downed a drink
I turned up the noise so I don't have to think
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show

[Verse 3]
Now I walk home
Alone in the streets
They used to be ours and they used to taste sweet
A cloth to my face, but I'm never clean
Validate me till I'm all that you see
What would I do for a little resolve?
With these Taurus skies, I will wait till I'm old

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
[Bridge]
I decided I can't live a lie
So put on the makeup you didn't like
And I fell in love, I fell in love once again
So leave me, leave me for your shitty friends

[Chorus]
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and no one will know
